I have a 2019 Tucson with 66,000 miles purchased used in 2020. It runs fine. I also purchased a 2019 Sonata at the same time without knowing about the engine issues. I had previously owned a 2007 Santa Fe and a 2008 Sonata, both without any problems, so I didn’t think Hyundai was a bad car. However, reading about all these engine failures now is scaring me. I was even considering trading for a Toyota or Honda. I paid $18,000 for the Tucson, and the trade-in value is around $13,000, so I’d lose $5,000 plus the high cost for a new/used Toyota/Honda. At least I would feel more secure.
I’m wondering if anyone knows approximately what are the odds my engine will go bad, is it 5%, 10%, 20%? I drive locally about 6,000 miles per year and use Amsoil. So far, there are no symptoms whatsoever on either car, and I had the KSDS done on both cars.
